Well, that pack is just optimized for running low wattage LED lamps such as rope lights and small fixtures that use a 120 volt LED replacement lamp. Usually, when you change over to LED pars, you are actually changing the fixture to one that has the LED emitters and electronics right in the can. In those cases, the cans simply plug in the wall for power and have a DMX connector(s) on the back. (There is no separate DMX dimmer pack needed.) The cans themselves have the settings for address and mode right on the back of the can. The connectors on the cans most likely would be 3 pin XLR connectors and probably are the ones you are using now. DMX itself calls for a 5 pin connector*, but only uses 3 of the pins, so much of the equipment like ADJ or Chauvet come equipped with 3 pin XLR connectors. As for the power to the cans, regular household looking plugs. (Edison, 15 amp U-ground, NEMA 5-15)
*= In the professional environment, all DMX is 5 pin. This is not only the "standard", but is helps prevent people from using mic cables which is somewhat of a no-no and definitely not "DMX."
